"as if she were teaching a seahorse to speak" My goal is to have such command over language that I can give words to gestures with this level of meticulous preciseness
@@arinidhant4257 it's not a metaphor as such. If you've seen seahorses, you'd know that face they make with their mouths, kind of mimics how we pout while kissing. I think it was an absurd but completely valid comparison for poetic effect of how out-of-the-world kissing feels
First Kiss by Tim Seibles Her mouth fell into my mouth like a summer snow, like a 5th season, like a fresh Eden, like Eden when Eve made God whimper with the liquid tilt of her hips- her kiss hurt like that- I mean, it was as if she’d mixed the sweat of an angel with the taste of a tangerine, I swear. My mouth had been a helmet forever greased with secrets, my mouth a dead-end street a little bit lit by teeth-my heart, a clam slammed shut at the bottom of a dark, but her mouth pulled up like a baby-blue Cadillac packed with canaries driven by a toucan-I swear those lips said bright wings when we kissed, wild and precise-as if she were teaching a seahorse to speak- her mouth so careful, chumming the first vowel from my throat until my brain was a piano banged loud, hammered like that- it was like, I swear her tongue was Saturn’s 7th moon- hot like that, hot and cold and circling, circling, turning me into a glad planet- sun on one side, night pouring her slow hand over the other: one fire flying the kite of another. Her kiss, I swear-if the Great Mother rushed open the moon like a gift and you were there to feel your shadow finally unhooked from your wrist. That’d be it, but even sweeter- like a riot of peg-legged priests on pogo-sticks, up and up, this way and this, not falling but on and on like that, badly behaved but holy-I swear! That kiss: both lips utterly committed to the world like a Peace Corps, like a free store, forever and always a new city-no locks, no walls, just doors-like that, I swear, like that.
Thanks for the effort, but here's the actual stanza shape: First Kiss for Lips Her mouth fell into my mouth like a summer snow, like a 5th season, like a fresh Eden, like Eden when Eve made God whimper with the liquid tilt of her hips- her kiss hurt like that- I mean, it was as if she’d mixed the sweat of an angel with the taste of a tangerine, I swear.

First kiss: Our lips clumsily and lifelessly mushed together as our noses unintentionally collided; it was pretty forgettable, because neither of us knew what we were doing, and we were pretty bad at it. Now THAT'S poetry! ;)
@@colleen9493 Lol, it's more realistic. That was my actual first kiss. I think "first kiss" is more of a milestone than an experience. I don't get all the hype. :P
I took 3 classes with Tim Seibles back in the late 90s. Hearing him recite this poem just brought so many of his lessons back... He was the most influential teacher I ever had.
I just wanna say that this is my most favorite poem, out of any I have encountered in my entire 20 year life, really! I always strive to write something with as close as the power, command and precision of language used in this masterpiece. I could only wonder if I could make an art or game project out of this poem, really. Only I could dream of making that one day...
I adore this poetry series and hope we may see more in the future. Not only is it refreshing and imaginative, it has also introduced me to several very talented contemporary poets whom I would not have known about otherwise.
I listen to this poem when I need to feel hypnotized while smiling all the while. 'Badly behaved but holy I swear' No image captures the feeling quite like this. This is why art is made.
I came here to see physiological and psychological effects of first kiss but here is a poet describing the feel of first kiss to a guy who haven't kissed yet! 2 min before next day I got fooled!(from India)
The piano playing in the background is incredibly beautiful and heartfelt. Can anybody please tell me if that is a piece I can search on youtube? Thank you for reading 💙
Full poem: Her mouth fell into my mouth like a summer snow, like a 5th season, like a fresh Eden, like Eden when Eve made God whimper with the liquid tilt of her hips- her kiss hurt like that- I mean, it was as if she’d mixed the sweat of an angel with the taste of a tangerine, I swear.

I haven't kissed anyone yet..My mood was kinda off..But I feel better after listening to this..There are some problems going on in life but this just shows that life can be good..You just need to keep going...No point in giving up..Thankyou mate
ive never had my first kiss and had not been the kind to be fond of romanticising 'firsts' but this poem really hit the spot. now, it doesnt matter if my first kiss would be as magical as this poet had described his because id view mine like him after such a wonderful piece.
First kiss was an accident. That day when we walked by the shore. We were with our friends. Waiting for the sun to set. We played. I ran and tripped not knowing it was you who's in front of me. I fell on you. You caught me in your arms. Our faces went near each other. Our lips pressed against each other. I stood up. You stood up. My heart was so fast in beating. Like horses racing towards the finish line. I didn't know with yours. If you felt the same way too.
Racemixer Berg I kissed 7 different girls, slept with them all. Still I feel sad as if none of those experiences exist. I felt nothing when I was with them, there wasn’t any emotions. It’s even more sad to feel nothing than to yearn for something good.
So you mean you were kissed during or after the video? Because you explicitly say “before”, which implies that you were kissed not before, so during or after. Otherwise, you’d have omitted the “before”.
I love that you do these videos, poetry is so important, I mean I absolutely hate this poem but that’s the beauty of art, you don’t have to like it, it just needs to make you think or feel, even if that feeling is hatred lmao ❤️
It was touching video. This leads me to an emotional mood. I’m walking on air! Animation is pretty sick! What plant are you on! I don’t know what to say except for that this is amazing! I’m getting the sense that many people recall something, after watching this video.
it is truly wonderful how the human brain can deepen and render a simple act magical. A simple kiss, a simple lock of lips, can be so much more than the world itself to us. That's truly beautiful
According to me, this poetry is full of "emotions" the way of expressing the love to their beloved is so beautifully written ,it relates nature and several sounds twinkling in poet's mind on his first kiss he's actually comparing his love to the angles, speaking horse and with thousands of thoughts!! Shimaela khan(1157)
Wonderful poem, and such lively animation, TedEd! Can you add more poems to the series? May I suggest “Persimmons” by Li-Young Lee, a poem written from a personal experience of an Asian-American.

@@atrijitdas1704 OH that makes a lot of sense! Thank you so much. So does the "teaching to speak" part also correspond to this?
*PLOT TWIST* the kiss was on the cheek.
Although his mouth was also affected? That's one darn creepy kiss.
Please read the first line of the poem -_-
Whyyyyy??!!!!
Then the poet must be so sensitive or something XD
LMAO
The metaphors are exquisite... I felt sceptically about a poem descibing a kiss, but as a result found myself touched.
Thank you, Ted-ed!
First Kiss by Tim Seibles
Her mouth
fell into my mouth
like a summer snow, like a
5th season, like a fresh Eden,
like Eden when Eve made God
whimper with the liquid
tilt of her hips-
her kiss hurt like that-
I mean, it was as if she’d mixed
the sweat of an angel
with the taste of a tangerine,
I swear. My mouth
had been a helmet forever
greased with secrets, my mouth
a dead-end street a little bit
lit by teeth-my heart, a clam
slammed shut at the bottom of a dark,
but her mouth pulled up
like a baby-blue Cadillac
packed with canaries driven
by a toucan-I swear
those lips said bright
wings when we kissed, wild
and precise-as if she were
teaching a seahorse to speak-
her mouth so careful, chumming
the first vowel from my throat
until my brain was a piano
banged loud, hammered like that-
it was like, I swear her tongue
was Saturn’s 7th moon-
hot like that, hot
and cold and circling,
circling, turning me
into a glad planet-
sun on one side, night pouring
her slow hand over the other: one fire
flying the kite of another.
Her kiss, I swear-if the Great
Mother rushed open the moon
like a gift and you were there
to feel your shadow finally
unhooked from your wrist.
That’d be it, but even sweeter-
like a riot of peg-legged priests
on pogo-sticks, up and up,
this way and this, not
falling but on and on
like that, badly behaved
but holy-I swear! That
kiss: both lips utterly committed
to the world like a Peace Corps,
like a free store, forever and always
a new city-no locks, no walls, just
doors-like that, I swear,
like that.
Thank you. 😊

Now THAT'S poetry! ;)
Now that a poem
Good job:)

It's got a rap flow
Wow, so original

what is this ted ed.
how the heck y’all feel that i’ve been yearning for a relationship?
mauve u girl or boy?
I bet she's a girl
This is way to much emotion for me😂

Jokes on you my first kiss was with the pavement
Her thinking: Hmm. Is that peanut butter?
Some trippy stuff going on. Ted Ed is just flexing on ppl who haven’t had a first kiss.
“Peg legged priests on pogo sticks”
This makes first kisses sound like a spiritual and angelic experience….I wish I could say mines was like that
I listen to this poem when I need to feel hypnotized while smiling all the while.
'Badly behaved but holy I swear'
